Hims & Hers enables Zepbound vials, KwikPen prescribing through LillyDirect

Hims & Hers founder and CEO Andrew Dudum said via X, “As of this morning, providers on our platform can now send prescriptions for Zepbound vials and KwikPen, as well as Foundayo, to the LillyDirect pharmacy and access self-pay pricing for our customers because of an expansion in our platform’s functionality. In many ways, today reminds me of Netflix’s early days, when everyone talked about whether they would have the latest blockbuster in their catalog. As if Netflix’s success depended on its ability to become the distribution channel for a single film. They were missing the forest for the trees: Netflix wasn’t just renting DVDs. It was changing consumer behavior by ruthlessly prioritizing choice and inventing new pathways to the things people wanted the most. By offering a full range of FDA-approved GLP-1s on our platform, we’re similarly giving our customers more choices through all the tools we have available – and we’ll continue to push here on behalf of everyone who depends on us for their care.” Shares of Hims & Hers are up almost 7% in pre-market trading.
